VANCOUVER, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dejour Energy Inc. (NYSE MKT: DEJ / TSX: DEJ) (“Dejour” or the “Company”),
an independent oil and natural gas exploration and production company
operating in North America’s Piceance Basin and Peace River Arch
regions, today announces receipt of an assessment of contingent and
prospective recoverable resources effective July 1, 2014 for the
Company’s 100% WI resource project covering 1960 net acres at Roan Creek
in the SW Piceance Basin. The Company commissioned Gustavson Associates,
LLC of Boulder, Colorado to complete the independent
contingent/prospective recoverable resource assessment prepared in
accordance with the definitions, standards and procedures contained in
the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook and National Instrument
51-101 "Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities" of the
Canadian Securities Administrators ("NI 51-101").

For both Table 1-1 and Table 1-2, the Low Estimate column
represents the P90 values from the probabilistic analysis (in other
words, the value is greater than or equal to the P90 value 90% of the
time), while the Best Estimate represents the P50 and the High Estimate
represents the P103.

Logistically Roan Creek is easily accessed, being central among 28 new
Mancos vertical and horizontal producers in the SW Piceance. Dejour has
proceeded with an application for drilling as part of its expected
2015-16 development campaign. The Company is encouraged by production
profiles of these recently drilled Mancos/Niobrara wells that show
expected recoveries as much as 6 BCF per Hz well in the Mancos alone at
depths to 8500’.

“Receipt of the Gustavson report of estimated recoverable resources at
Roan Creek is very timely for Dejour as it provides both a detailed
analysis of the production potential associated with our leasehold and
validates our belief in the long-term value of the Mancos/ Niobrara.
Given favorable commodity pricing, and, when coupled with our current
Kokopelli JV activity, the Company is well positioned to exploit the
prolific Mancos/ Niobrara to further enhance to its Colorado reserve
base,” states Robert L. Hodgkinson, CEO.

Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information: This news
release contains statements about oil and gas production and operating
activities that may constitute "forward-looking statements" or
“forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable
securities legislation as they involve the implied assessment that the
resources described can be profitably produced in the future, based on
certain estimates and assumptions. Forward-looking statements include,
but are not limited to, statements with respect to estimates of reserves
and or resources, future production levels, future capital expenditures,
ultimate recovery of reserves or resources and timing of which certain
areas will be explored, developed or reach expected operating capacity,
that are based on forecasts of future results, estimates of amounts not
yet determinable and assumptions of management. Forward-looking
statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections
that involve a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated
by Dejour and described in the forward-looking statements. These risks,
uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to, adverse
general economic conditions, operating hazards, drilling risks, inherent
uncertainties in interpreting engineering and geologic data,
competition, reduced availability of drilling and other well services,
fluctuations in oil and gas prices and prices for drilling and other
well services, government regulation and foreign political risks,
fluctuations in the exchange rate between Canadian and US dollars and
other currencies, as well as other risks commonly associated with the
exploration and development of oil and gas properties. Additional
information on these and other factors, which could affect Dejour’s
operations or financial results, are included in Dejour’s reports on
file with Canadian and United States securities regulatory authorities.
We assume no obligation to update forward-looking statements should
circumstances or management's estimates or opinions change unless
otherwise required under securities law.

Contingent Resource Disclaimer: Contingent Resources are defined
as “those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a given date, to be
potentially recoverable from known accumulations using established
technology or technology under development, but which are not currently
considered to be commercially recoverable due to one or more
contingencies. Contingencies may include factors such as economic,
legal, environmental, political, and regulatory matters, or a lack of
markets. It is also appropriate to classify as contingent resources the
estimated discovered recoverable quantities associated with a project in
the early evaluation stage.”1 The Mancos Shale is considered
a known resource in this area because it is being produced from numerous
wells nearby, and the accumulation is known to occur throughout the
area. The contingency for the Contingent Resources assigned to the
Mancos Shale is that development of this resource is in its early
stages, and insufficient data are available regarding the productivity
of the reservoir in the immediate area of the subject acreage to enable
assignment of any reserves. There is no certainty that it will be
commercially viable to produce any portion of the Contingent Resources.

Prospective Resource Disclaimer: Prospective Resources are
defined as “those quantities of oil and gas estimated on a given date to
be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations. They are
technically viable andeconomic to recover.” 2 These
estimates represent the likely size of the resource, if present, andhave
not been adjusted for risk of failure. The reason that the resources
assigned to theMesaverde Group of reservoirs are classified as
Prospective rather than Contingent is thatalthough these
reservoirs are considered to be within the continuous gas accumulation
of thebasin-centered gas accumulation (BCGA) to the east of the
subject acreage, the boundary of thecontinuous accumulation is
somewhere near the subject acreage and has not been preciselydefined.
The acreage may have potential for only conventional accumulations of
hydrocarbons; thus, it cannot be said that these resources are in a
known accumulation.

RISKS AND CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS

Significant Positive and Negative Factors
Relevant to the Resources Estimates: This news release
contains forward looking information including, but not limited to,
estimated resources. The forward looking information is based on current
expectations and is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties which
could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated.
These risks include, but are not limited to the following:

Risks associated with ever making a discovery:
The estimation of prospective resource volumes for high-risk and poorly
calibrated basins can be subject to large variation from the
introduction of new information. The estimates presented herein are
based on all of the information available; however, new data or
information is likely to have a material effect on the resource
assessment values. There is no certainty that any portion of the
resources if discovered, will be commercially viable to produce any
portion of the resources.

Risk Associated with the Estimates:
In the event of a discovery, basic reservoir parameters, such as
porosity, net hydrocarbon pay thickness, fluid composition and water
saturation, may vary from those assumed by Gustavson affecting the
volume of hydrocarbon estimated to be present. Other factors such as the
reservoir pressure, density and viscosity of the oil and solution
gas/oil ratio will affect the volume of oil that can be recovered.
Additional reservoir parameters such as permeability, the presence or
absence of water drive and the specific mineralogy of the reservoir rock
may affect the efficiency of the recovery process. Recovery of the
resources may also be affected by well performance, reliability of
production and process facilities, the availability and quality of
source water for enhanced recovery processes and availability of fuel
gas. There is no certainty that certain mineral interests are not
affected by ownership considerations that have not yet come to light.

Risk Associated with the Classifications:

Substantial Capital Requirements:

Dejour expects to make substantial capital expenditures for exploration,
development and production of oil and gas reserves in the future. The
Company's ability to access the equity or debt markets in the future may
be affected by any prolonged market instability. The inability to access
the equity or debt markets for sufficient capital, at acceptable terms
and within required time frames, could have a material adverse effect on
the Company's financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Absence of a Formal Development Plan including
Required Funding:

There is no certainty the Company will prepare and approve a development
plan for any portion of the contingent resources or that the Company
will be successful in funding any development should such a plan be
prepared. General market conditions, the sufficiency of such a
development plan and the outlook regarding oil and gas prices are some
factors that will influence the availability of funding.

Additional Risks:

Additional risks associated with the estimate of the prospective and
contingent resources include risks associated with the oil and gas
industry generally (i.e. financing; operational risks in exploration,
development and production; delays or changes in plans with respect to
exploration or development projects or capital expenditures; the
uncertainty of estimates and projections related to production; costs
and expenses; health, safety, security and environmental risks; and the
uncertainty of resource estimates), drilling equipment availability and
efficiency, the ability to attract and retain key personnel, the risk of
commodity price and foreign exchange rate fluctuations, the uncertainty
associated with dealing with governments and obtaining regulatory
approvals, and the risk associated with international activities.
